Conventional towing tractors of this type have a removable towing bar, and when moving an aircraft, the tractor and the towed aircraft are connected by a towing bar, and the tractor is operated to tow the aircraft to the desired location. In order to increase the traction force, it is necessary to increase the motor capacity of the tractor itself as well as its vehicle weight, and therefore, it is impossible to avoid increasing the size of the vehicle.

The embodiment of the present invention is constructed as described above, and in order to move the aircraft, the vehicle is first brought close to the aircraft and the tip of the lifting platform 6 is opposed to the front part of the nose tire of the towed aircraft.

Next, the piston rods of the lifting cylinders 8, 8' are extended to push the brat 6 down to the ground surface, and then the vehicle is driven again to bring the tip of the lifting gracitro into contact with the front lower part of the nose tire of the aircraft.

Next, by raising the lifting platform by operating the lifting cylinders 8 and 8', the aircraft will be lifted at the nose tire, and by driving the vehicle in this manner, the movement of the aircraft will be controlled by the vehicle. This can be done with some of the aircraft's own weight added to it.

The present invention thus provides a vehicle equipped with an elevating platform for lifting the towed aircraft by its nose tire, and a retraction device such as a cylinder for retracting the nose tire onto the elevating platform. The aircraft can be moved with part of the weight of the towed aircraft being transferred to the vehicle, increasing the ground pressure of the vehicle by that amount. Therefore, the weight of the vehicle can be reduced and the vehicle can be made smaller, making it cheaper. In addition, the towing bracket can be replaced with a compact towing bracket, which makes the installation and removal work easier, although the work of installing and removing the towing bar during aircraft movement work is not completely eliminated. At the same time, the steering operation to align with the towed aircraft becomes easier, reducing work time.

Furthermore, since aircraft towing work can be carried out with the vehicle close to a part of the nose gear, stable towing is possible and towing is easy.Furthermore, the traction force for the aircraft is limited to the aircraft and the elevating platform, which are made up of only aircraft retracting devices. Therefore, when towing a small or medium-sized aircraft, the purpose can be achieved by simply providing a simple tow fitting for connecting the towing device to the aircraft at the front of the aircraft. Can be done.
